Benefits of technology

"The present invention is about compounds that are alkyne-ary substituted 1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-ones. These compounds are phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors that can be used to treat allergies and inflammation. However, some compounds can cause emesis, a side effect that can be uncomfortable for some patients. The invention aims to provide novel compounds that can inhibit PDE4 without causing emesis."

Problems solved by technology

Polymorphism may result in isolation of materials with different melting points in some preparations.

example 1

N-Isopropyl-1-[3-(phenylethynyl)phenyl]-1,4-dihydro[1,8]naphthyridin-4-one-3-carboxamide

Step 1: Ethyl 3-(3-bromoanilino)-2-(2-chloronicotinoyl)acrylate.

A mixture of ethyl 2-chloronicotinoyl acetate (41.1 g, 180.5 mmol), triethyl orthoformate (40.12 g, 271 mmol) and acetic anhydride (92.05 g, 902.5 mmol) was heated at 130.degree. C. for 2.5 hours. The volatile components were distilled off and the resulting residue was co-evaporated twice with xylene. The oily residue was dissolved in methylene chloride (250 mL) and 3-bromoaniline (37.25 g, 216.6 mmol) was added slowly. The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours, and the solvent evaporated away. The resulting crude compound was used as such in the next step.

Step 2: Ethyl 1-(3-bromophenyl)-1,4-dihydro[1,8]naphthyridin-4-one-3-carboxylate.

The crude compound from Step 1 was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (500 mL), the solution was cooled to 0.degree. C., and sodium hydride (as a 60% dispersion in oil, 9.4 g, 235 m...

N-Isopropyl-1-[3-(4-pyridinylethynyl)phenyl]-1,4-dihydro[1,8]naphthyridin-4-one-3-carboxamide

Following the procedure of Step 5 of EXAMPLE 1, but substituting 4-ethynylpyridine (J.Org.Chem. 1996, 61, 6535) for phenylacetylene, the title compound was obtained as a solid.

Abstract

Compounds represented by Formula (I):or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, are phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitors useful in the treatment of asthma and inflammation.

Description

The present invention is directed to compounds that are alkyne-aryl substituted 1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-ones. In particular, this invention is directed to phenyl substituted 1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-ones which are phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitors wherein the phenyl group is at the 1-position and contains a 2-alkyne substituent group further optionally substituted.RELATED BACKGROUNDHormones are compounds that variously affect cellular activity. In many respects, hormones act as messengers to trigger specific cellular responses and activities. Many effects produced by hormones, however, are not caused by the singular effect of just the hormone. Instead, the hormone first binds to a receptor, thereby triggering the release of a second compound that goes on to affect the cellular activity. In this scenario, the hormone is known as the first messenger while the second compound is called the second messenger. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, "cAMP" or "cycl...
